Welcome Tigers!

I am very excited about returning to CME this fall, teaching 3rd Grade ELA!

My name is Michael Matherne and I am from Sugar Land, Texas. I graduated from the University of Houston with a B.A. in Broadcast Journalism and I have been with Fort Bend I.S.D. for 8 years. I am currently in my sixth year of teaching, five of which, I've been proud to be a Tiger! At CME, I have taught Kindergarten, First Grade and this upcoming school year, I am the Third Grade Team Lead. Prior to CME, I was the Ancillary/ STEM teacher at Ridgemont Early Childhood Center.

In my classroom, I believe in fostering a healthy and positive environment that allows each student to feel safe and comfortable, which empowers them to learn, grow and explore new and exciting things.  

Outside of school, you may find me grabbing a bite at Chick-fil- a, spending time with my dogs or on the golf course! 

I am looking forward to an amazing 2022-2023 school year, Tigers!
